Running Wild Excerpt/Teaser

So, I had to pick out an excerpt for Running Wild’s RT Debut and thought I’d share. I think this one will do. What do you think?

He kissed her hard, his tongue sliding over hers, stealing her protest, leaving only a soft exhale of his name in its place. He pulled back. This close she couldn’t miss the power emanating from him, or the glow in his eyes. The glow that marked him as something other than human.

“Later I’ll explain everything to you, but you will obey me now.”

“No.” Of the hundred fractured thoughts and words scattered through her mind, that was the only one she could get out.

He pulled her into his chest, against the body she’d made love to the night before. The inhuman body.

“I can handle this, seelie.” Donovan’s hand stroked down her back. The gesture was hauntingly familiar in the surreal landscape of her thoughts. So was the confidence in his voice. “I’m a Protector. It’s what I do.”

Car doors slammed, snapping her out of her paralysis. Her hands balled into fists against Donovan’s shoulder. Men were coming to kill them. She didn’t need to deal with anything more devastating than that right now. She pushed away from Donovan’s embrace. Feeling strangely calm, oddly detached, she asked, “Can you handle them?”

“Yes.”

She bit her lip as shadows crested the hill, slithering over the snow, growing with every heartbeat. They only had seconds to come up with a plan. “What are you going to do?”

His eyes glowed. He touched the bruise on her cheekbone in a feather-light caress. “I’m going to kill them.”

  5. I can’t wait. Of course I’m racing over to my TBB list as soon as I finish this to add RUNNING WILD. I should go back to lisabea and give her a cyber kiss for sending me over here.

    Oh, and you sent my pulse up a few hundred beats when I saw the comment about the Rev. Can’t. Wait.
